My daughter needs surgery overseas
Hi
My daughter Mia and I have lived in Stonefields for just over 6 years and we love it here. It's such a friendly community and handy to everything.
Unfortunately my daughter isn't well - she has ehlers danlos syndrome which has caused 4 compressions in her abdomen - meaning she can't eat food, has lost over 8kgs, has stomach & back pain, headaches and vomiting and isn't in school.
Her vascular surgeon has referred us to a team of surgeons in Germany who specialise in vascular compressions (they only affect 0.3% of the population so we don't have anyone doing the surgeries here in NZ).
We have to raise $140,000, so I'd really appreciate if you'd share the link below to Mia's Give a Little Page on your social media pages.
Thanks

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
